I’m supposed to be invisible. As an event coordinator, I’m the quiet hands making the Aldridge Group galas gleam. For three years, no one on the executive team even knew my name.
Until Grayson Aldridge looked at me.
At forty-two, the billionaire CEO is ruthless, untouchable, and used to getting exactly what he wants. And from the moment our eyes meet across a crowded ballroom, he decides he wants me.
Before I can catch my breath, Grayson expands my agency’s contract and pulls me into the thirty-eighth-floor corner office. He is dominant, demanding, and strips away every professional defense I have. Behind closed doors, he ruins me with praise and makes me beg for his touch. He tells me I’m his. He makes me believe it.
But loving a man who owns the world comes with a price. When our forbidden affair catches the board’s attention, Grayson’s instinct is to protect me—even if it means making decisions that erase the career I’ve bled for. To survive his love, I have to stop hiding in the shadows. I have to demand he lets me take up space.
